installation details for the following devices:
•
Ethernet Internal Card
•
Internal Phoneline Adapter
•
Internal Wireless Adapter
•
Ethernet PC Card
•
Phoneline PC Card
•
Wireless PC Card
•

Installing PCI cards
This section describes how to install the following PCI adapters:
•
Ethernet Internal Card: Fast Ethernet is a network technology that extends traditional 10 Mbps
Ethernet technology to achieve 100 Mbps transmission and reception. Your Wireless USB Adapter
gives you the ability to share information and resources, such as files and printers, and take full
advantage of a connected environment for work and play.
•
Internal Phoneline Adapter: This adapter allows you to build a network using standard home
telephone lines. Using the Internal Phoneline Adapter, you do not need to install separate hardware
or special cables.
•
Internal Wireless Adapter: This adapter is a standard PC Card-to-PCI bus adapter that you can
use to install PC cards into computers that do not have a factory-installed PC Card slot. After you
install the Internal Wireless Adapter in your computer, you can then insert a standard PC Card into
the adapter and configure the PC Card for use.
Note: To avoid static electric charges, touch an unpainted screw to the outside of the power supply before
installing or working with the adapter.
1
To install your PCI adapter, follow these steps:
1. Power off the computer and unplug the power cord.
2. Remove the outer cover of your computer and locate an available PCI slot.
3. Remove the backplate (the small piece of metal that covers the opening for the PCI card on the back
cover that you just removed).
4. Insert the PCI adapter into the PCI slot.
5. Secure the adapter with the screw from the
backplate and replace the cover of your
computer.
6. If necessary, use the supplied network cable
to connect the adapter to your network
hardware.
Installing PCMCIA cards
This section describes how to install the following PCMCIA cards:
•
Ethernet PC Card: A credit card-sized Ethernet/Fast Ethernet adapter that you can use to connect
a laptop PC to an Ethernet network.
•
Phoneline PC Card: Allows you to build a network using standard home telephone lines. Using
the Phoneline PC Card, you do not need to install separate hardware or special cables.
•
Wireless PC Card: A wireless network card that fits into any standard PC Card Type II slot. A
standard Ethernet card requires a cable connection to a hub or a patch panel. Using the Wireless
PC Card, you have the same connectivity without the wires. Expanding or redesigning your
network is easy, and unlike cabled Ethernet, the Wireless PC Card allows you to roam throughout
the network while remaining connected to the LAN.
To install your PCMCIA adapter card, follow these steps:
1. Power off the computer.
2. Gently insert the front end of the PC card into the
Cardbus PC slot on your laptop, until it is firmly
seated. (If you have a desktop computer, you must
use an internal wireless adapter in order to insert
the Wireless PC Card.)
Installing USB Adapters
This section describes how to install the following USB Adapters:
•
Ethernet USB Adapter: Provides plug-and-play local area network (LAN) connections for
devices that use a USB port, such as USB-enabled PCs, laptops, and hubs.The Ethernet USB
Adapter connects to a USB host and comes with an RJ-45 port that is used to connect to an
2
Ethernet or Fast Ethernet LAN. Using the Ethernet USB Adapter, you can share files and printers
with other network users.
•
Wireless USB Adapter: A wireless networking device that is connected to a USB port on your
computer using a USB cable. Using the Wireless USB Adapter, you can communicate with one or
more computers that are equipped with wireless adapters. Where a standard Ethernet card requires
a cable connection to a hub or a patch panel, wireless networking provides the same connectivity
without the wires. Expanding or redesigning your network is easy, and unlike cabled Ethernet, the
Wireless USB Adapter allows users to roam throughout the network while remaining connected to
the LAN.
The supplied USB cable has a different type of USB connector on each end.
Series A connector. The Series A USB connector plugs into the USB port on your computer.
Series B connector. The Series B USB connector plugs into the back of your USB device, such
as the port located on the back of your USB hub.

Troubleshooting Tips
This section provides troubleshooting tips for adapters.
PCI Adapters
PCI adapters include these models:
•
Ethernet Internal Card
•
Internal Phoneline Adapter
•
Internal Wireless Adapter
Due to a fault in some Plug-n-Play BIOS programs, occasionally a newly installed adapter is assigned an
interrupt number that is already assigned to another device. In such a case, the conflict of interrupt number
causes faults in the behavior of both devices. To correct this problem, run the CMOS Setup utility and
manually assign a non-conflicting interrupt number.
Internal Phoneline Adapter
Windows ME installs default drivers for the device during the Plug-n-Play installation. These drivers are
old and may cause some networking problems (specifically with performance). You may or may not notice
any problems. If you experience problems with the Internal Phoneline Adapter running under Windows
ME, try updating the default Windows ME drivers for the adapter with the one supplied on the 2Wire
Setup Wizard CD-ROM. To update the drivers, go to Device Manager>Network Adapters, highlight the
Internal Phoneline Adapter, and select Properties to update the driver from the root of the 2Wire Setup
Wizard CD-ROM.
Internal Wireless Adapter
You might see problems using the Internal Wireless Adapter under Windows 2000. The device and drivers
install properly. However, after you install the Wireless PC Card, the adapter fails to obtain a DHCP IP
address. To correct this problem, you must first install the Windows 2000 Service Pack 1 or later (the
Windows 2000 Service Pack 2 is included on the 2WireSetup Wizard CD-ROM). Next, run the
lucentwk2.reg file, also located on the 2Wire Setup Wizard CD-ROM in the \Orinoco Wireless
\Utils directory. Finally, reboot your computer.
25
Windows PCs
If the adapter indicator lights are not lit, the adapter
or adapter driver may not be properly installed. To
verify that the adapter or adapter driver is properly
installed, check the Windows Device Manager. The
following screen capture shows a 2Wire PC Port in
the Network adapters list.
If the adapter or adapter driver is not installed
properly, the device will display with a red X or a
question mark, as shown in the following screen
capture.
Follow these steps:
1. Unplug the adapter.
2. Uninstall the adapter drivers.
3. Restart your computer.
4. Reinstall the adapter and adapter driver.
5. Verify that the adapter is receiving a valid IP address.
Verifying IP Address for Windows 95, 98, and ME
To verify that the adapter is receiving a valid IP address:
1. Click the Start button.
2. Select Run.
3. Enter “winipcfg.”
A dialog box opens.
4. Select the adapter, and verify that the IP address is 172.16.1.x, 10.0.1.x, or 192.168.1.x. If one of these
addresses does not display, click Release and then Renew.
Verifying IP Address for Windows NT, 2000, and XP
To verify that the adapter is receiving a valid IP address:
1. Click the Start button.
2. Select Run.
3. Enter “ipconfig.”
4. Select the adapter, and verify that the IP address is 172.16.1.x, 10.0.1.x, or 192.168.1.x. If one of these
addresses does not display, enter “ipconfig/release” and then “ipconfig/renew.”
